It’s been a while since we’ve posted. We got caught up in the vacation spirit and have taken a break from photo-documenting our food. It’s been great. We hope you’ve all had a nice holiday season as well. We + camera are back in the kitchen now, armed with a plethora of new cookbooks and [...]

Add this one to your post-holiday menus. It’s on ours. This is one of our favorite ways to prepare cauliflower, and after a week of complicated, heavy meals, this easy, slightly spicy food is just about right. It still has some richness due to the toasted nuts, but that’s offset by the chilies and ginger. [...]

This post is for “Nancy O”, who spied pictures of our Beef Stroganoff on flickr and asked if we’d be posting it soon. It’s certainly a good time for this dish, at least here in Seattle where temperatures have been dipping into the 20s and even the teens. I made this last week when we [...]

To be honest, I made this ice cream in October and I’ve been sitting on the recipe ever since, waiting for December. That’s because it’s December flavored ice cream. The recipe came from David Lebovitz’s The Perfect Scoop, and in a book of great recipes, this one is among the best. Mr. Lebovitz doesn’t call [...]

It comes together in about a half an hour, tastes fantastic, and feels comforting. There are certainly [...]

Now, after all that, it’s kind of hard to know how to measure success. Having never experienced anything but standard, store-bought ham before, we weren’t exactly sure [...]

We first made this recipe from the Feburary 2005 edition of Food & Wine at Thanksgiving a couple of years back. It was very well received and we’ve kept it on the rotation ever since. The manchego almond sauce here is a refreshing twist on your typical cream sauce, but it definitely still has that [...]

My cousin Kathryn called last week looking for Thanksgiving ideas, so this post is for her. I’ll be making these sprouts next Thursday, along with this pie. When I made this last night, we ate it warm, but for thanksgiving I will prepare it a couple hours before dinner and serve it as a room [...]

Here’s an unusual dish for our friend Zach, who commented that it was not yet “cold enough” down in sunny California to make the pork with apples and calvados recipe we posted last week. We feel for you Zach. Perhaps the coconut and avocado that give this braised beef shank a distinctly tropical flair will [...]
